RESPECTABLE TOWN
Why should the open bar continue to stand
as a pitfall to the young men ?
How many men can you count up in Gode-
rich whose lives have been spoilt, whose wives
have suffered bitterly and whose children have
got no decent upbringing because of the de-
grading influence of drink ?
Why should the women and girls, not to
mention self-respecting men, have to witness the
disgusting, indecent sight of drunken staggering
men, or drunken brawls, or to hear profane and
filthy language on the public streets or about the .
hotels ?
W uld any system be tolerated that is
absolutt, town to encourage crime, tbe social
vice and other forms of immorality, when the
termination of that system makes a place far
more decent and respectable to live in, and in a
business way does it more good than harm
Look out for false arguments against local
option. They have been used before in the
towns that have adopted local (4)tion, but those
towns would not even think of going back again
to the old system.

ST. ANDREW THE THEME OF REV.
GEO. E. ROSS' SERMON.
Inverness Camp Attends Divine Ser-
vice in Knox Church and Hears a
Splendid Discourse on Scotland's
Patron Saint The Great Qualities
of Scottish Character Portrayed.
St. Andres. Scot-
land's palrou saint.
war the theme of Rev.
Geo. E. Ross' sermon
in Knox church last
Sunday evening.
There was a very large congregation,
including about tufty members of lo -
sternest Camp, Boos of Scotland. who
attended in a body and occupied the
centre pewee.
The service was carried out a toord-
ing to the old traditions ut Scottish
Presbyterianism. he psalm& and pore -
phrases being sung to the old-ttule
tuner, without organ accompaniment.
Rev. Jas. Hamilton assisted the pastor
in the devotional exercises.
Rev. Mr. Reis., after appropriate
words of welcome to the member r of
Inverness Camp, spoke of the Biblical
refereucea to 8t. Andrew and then of
the traditions attached to his name.
Brief as were hetreferences to Bt.
Andrew in Scripture they were suffi-
cient to show tbe quality of tbe mac.
Especially marked were his menlioew,
his brotberlineee, hie resourcefulness
and his godliness. And these were
qualities which characterized- every
trite Scot -a meatiness which finds ex-
pression in indomitable courage • a
brotherliness towards all men, but
especially towards the members of the
clan ; a resourcefulness which enables
him to cope with any situation and to
snake the desert plate to blossom as
the rose; and a odlinessdeeply seated
and manifest in loyalty and reverence
for all that is noted and true.
No people in the world were so loyal
to home and country as the sons of
bonnie Scotland. Aud no land had
produced more distinguished men. Like
St. Andrew himself who travelled far
and wide proclaiming the Gospel, the
Scottish people were to be found to-
day in every quarter of the globe,
and whenreer they went they made
their mark.
In literature, pbilosophy and art
Scotland held a pueition quite unique.
"No songs can touch the beart like the
sones of Robbie Burns ; as long es the
heather blooms upon the Scottish hills
and the bonnie Docn flows on its way
will these songs delight the heart
and their music be rated as the finest in
the woe Id. In every worthy avocation
of life, in the practical and commercial
spheres no less than in the purely in-
tellectual. Scotland has reason to be
proud ct ber sour. Nowhere i. their
nobility of purpose and heroic faith
more evident tban in tbe missionary
acti,ities made illustrious by their
names. Such men as Livingstone,
Moffat and Mackay will always live.
As the Afraves of ocean lap the shores of
martyr isles they chant the requiem
of many a gallant Scot who gave his
lite for the Kingdom of God."
1'be secret of ouch greatness un-
doubtedly lay in the integrity of the
Scottish character sod life. Rever-
ence for God's house, for God's book
and for God'r day were enthroned in
the affections of every • wortby Scots-
man. The Scottish character, too, had
everywhere been telt in the develop-
ment of the highest national life. In
this fair Canaria, the land of our adop-
tion or our birth. we should do well to
estimate relative values correctly and
live and toil for the ultimate good. "May
wt. never fo'Iret that character is the
true test end standard of value under
all conditions : end that no tnatter
how we differ in tutor, coat or creed

less than the illegal rale ander Iteense.
And to show who do the selling now
he stated that the number of cases
proved against the hotels was thirty-
seven, while there were only tnr•ee
against the "blind pigs." He said
also that i.uing his five year.ttspastor
in Owen Sound he had been called nn
only three time:. to render assistance
in oars of drinking, whereas in other
.'wet" towus he had to re-pand fre-
quently to such ladle. Mr. Woodside
also made a strong plea for local op-
tion as a means of prose^tion for boys
and as an ep.00rtunity to free our -
waves from responsibility for the con-
tinuance of the liquor traffic and its
evils.
It was announced that Mr. Covers,
of Galt, would address a public meet-
ing on Thursday, „December 7t1, and
that on Sunda*. December 3rd, a

QUESTIONS FOR MR. ELLIOTT.
To the Editor orf The Signal.
8xa,-It used to be the custom at
general elections for each candidate
to ia•ue an address to the electors.
setting forth his views and inten-
tions in regard to questions likely
to come before hila if elected. It
seems a pity ttat it Las gone out
of fashion, and especially in the
case of those seeking Parliamentary
honors for the first time. For instance,
Home of us would very much like to
know definitely just where the Rev.
Joseph Elliott stands in regard t.0 cer-
tain (Ines O fife day. We know
of course that as a clergymen he is
in favor of ternpet•anee and moral re-
form. We know, too, that he has the
ability, the inclination, and the leisure
to devote hitaself to the public service,
and further that he strongly approves
of the general record and policy of the
Whitney Government ; but that is
hardly enough.
Permit rine therefore to suggest that
some of his temperance supporters
should ask him to give a definite pub-
lic answer to the following queries :
t1) Will be vote for local option at
the comipgt contest in town ?
(2) W ill he, if elected vote for a, mo-
tion to abolish the three-fifths require=
ment, and. if nor, why not?
(3) Will he vote for a motion to
"abolish the bar" ?
(4) Will he vote for a motion to
provide for more efficient inspection
and to take the question of inspection
and of granting licenses out of the
hands of the politicians of either party ?
We all know where Mr. Prcudfoot
stands on tbese questions.
it might not be 11111404 also for some
of Mr. Elliett's Orange supporters to
ask him to state publicly him views in
regard to bilingual schools.
Yours, etc.,

POWER FOR HURON'
GOVERNMENT NOW PROPOSES TO
DEVELOP MAITLAND RIVER.
County Deputation Waits Upon Hon
Adam beck at Toronto -bylaws to
Be Submitted to Municipalities at
January Elections -Mr, Beck to Be
in Goderich Next Week.
The Huron county power deputa-
tion waited upon Hon. Adam Beck at
Toronto on Tuesday. Tbe deputation
was composed of 11 arden Qeiger,•
Reeve Leckie of Brussels, Reeve Reid
of Goderich, Reeve Greig of Seaforth
and County Treasurer Holme..
The power ptuject as it is )elated to
Huron county has apparently taken
on a n' -w phase, as the menibers of
the deputation came away with the
belief that the county would not be
asked to become reponplhle for the
development of the Maitland River
power but that the Government heel!
would undertake it.
Mr. Beck gave in considerable detail
an explanation of the plans for the
mupplying of power to the counties of
Huron, Bruce and Grey. It is esti-
mated tbat from 12,000 to 15,000 home -
power is availed)). at high water from
the rivers in these three counties, and
about 4,1100 in the dry seating. The
cost of the development and the trans-
mission lines would he from $1,500.000
to 112,000,000, The transmission line
for the Huron district would be linked
up at S.•atorth with the Niagara line;
to ensure a constant supply of power
during tbe when the Maitland
River wrWlia beat a low level.
The committee will report to the
county council at its session next
week, and the minor municipalities of
the county may be asked to vote at
the January elections on bylaws stat-
ing whether or not they are prepared
to enter into cootrecte with the
Hydro -electric Commission.
Itis understood that no arrange-
ment has yet been made for the
acquisition by the Commission of the
"Black Hole" property, where the
power works on the Maitland Rivet
will like:v be located.
Hoo. Adam Beck will be da town
next Tuesday and will address the
county council on the power 'question
during the afternoon, In the eveniag
he is to address a political meeting ill
the intete-t of Rev. Joseph Elliott, the
Conservative candidate in Ceutre
Huror-.
